8 Wellesley Road

This is a unique 1950’s home and only the 2nd time on the market. It features plenty of character and charm. The 3 original double bedrooms are abundant with storage and have stylish polished native floorboards along with original brass fittings on windows & doors. A large separate lounge has a Kent fireplace with rendered surround.

The separate toilet is wide and wheelchair friendly and the large family bathroom has double sinks, a separate double shower and a large bath. The high ceilings with windows in the architecturally designed extension give a sense of space and light. A Library area is a standout feature where you can sit and read or study. The stairs lead to the 2 large bedrooms with extensive views out to Ambury farm and Mangere Mountain. The master bedroom is the piece de resistance with 2 walk-in wardrobes including a laundry chute in one. An en-suite with a designer bathtub, double shower & toilet is tastefully designed.

Downstairs is the open plan industrial kitchen, dining and lounge complete with a butler’s kitchen with elegant bamboo flooring. The kitchen has a large sink, stainless steel bench, 6 gas burner smeg stove and sleek wooden cabinetry. This is kept warm with a pellet fireplace. The lounge leads to a large courtyard with hand hewed stone slate alongside a wooden deck for larger gatherings. The courtyard is finished off by a pergola with outdoor lights. The extensive garden is laden with fruit trees galore & plentiful veggie gardens. Ambury farm is at the fence, so the views are second to none.
